KNDy kisspeptin is required for metabolic homeostasis in female mice in an ovarian hormone‐independent manner

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Disorders of gonadotropin pulsatility contribute to reproductive dysfunction in humans and are often associated with metabolic dysfunction. Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is characterized by chronically insufficient gonadotropin hormone production, leading to reproductive and metabolic impairments, such as infertility and obesity.

Kisspeptin as a test of hypothalamic dysfunction in pubertal and reproductive disorders

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 1002-1016, May 2026.
Abstract The hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis is regulated by the gonadotropin‐releasing hormone pulse generator in the hypothalamus. This is comprised of neurons that secrete kisspeptin in a pulsatile manner to stimulate the release of GnRH, and, in turn, downstream gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, and subsequently sex steroids and ...

Methylation biomarkers can distinguish pleural mesothelioma from healthy pleura and other pleural pathologies

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, Volume 20, Issue 4, Page 933-946, April 2026.
We developed and validated a DNA methylation–based biomarker panel to distinguish pleural mesothelioma from other pleural conditions. Using the IMPRESS technology, we translated this panel into a clinically applicable assay. The resulting two classifier models demonstrated excellent performance, achieving high AUC values and strong diagnostic accuracy.

Sexual Dimorphism in Kisspeptin and Kiss1R in the Ventrolateral Periaqueductal Gray [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Chronic pain manifests as a debilitating pathological state that affects up to 10% of the global population. Previous investigations revealed a disproportionate distribution of pain experience between sexes with females reporting a higher prevalence of ...

Kisspeptin Restores Placental mTOR Signaling and Improves Glucose Homeostasis Mediators Disrupted by Maternal Hypothyroidism in Rats

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Reduced placental mTOR signaling is associated with intrauterine growth restriction and impaired maternal and placental metabolism. Since maternal hypothyroidism induces intrauterine growth restriction, and maternal treatment with kisspeptin‐10 (Kp10) has been shown to improve feto‐placental development in hypothyroid rats, this study ...

Determination of KISS1, KISS1R and Kisspeptin in Fat Tissue of Normal Weight and Obese Humans and Correlations between Serum Kisspeptin and Leptin

open access: yesSiriraj Medical Journal, 2017
Kisspeptin, a neuropeptide mainly expressed in the hypothalamus, has a major role in reproductive regulation. Previous studies showed that Kiss1 mRNA expression is also found in adipose tissue in rats.

Recapitulating thyroid cancer histotypes through engineering embryonic stem cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Thyroid carcinoma (TC) is the most common malignancy of endocrine organs. Here, the authors show the ability of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) to recapitulate the different TC histotypes upon specific genomic alterations delivered by CRISPR-Cas9 and ...

Role of Kisspeptin-GPR54 system in regulation of reproductive functions in human and other mammals

open access: yesPakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021
Kisspeptin is a 54- amino acid peptide that acts as a ligand of a receptor called GPR54 which is basically a transmembrane receptor that spins seven times across the cell membrane and coupled with G-protein.

The Intersection of m6A Methylation and Immune Response in PCOS: A Bioinformatics Perspective

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
N6‐methyladenosine RNA methylation regulators are intricately linked with the development of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and may influence immune cell infiltration in affected individuals. This study enhances our understanding of the molecular interactions in PCOS and suggests potential biomarkers for diagnosis and targets for therapeutic ...
